We are choosing our own adventure as we Find Your Fate in the 1985 world of the Transformers. Plus, we’ll delve into the European iteration of similar-styled books with Young Corgi and we’ll correct an omission from our Big Looker look back.

Special guest this episode is The Salty Seaman (www.youtube.com/recharge138)!

Canada and Mexico had a number of interesting and weird variant toys in 1985. From odd colored Minibots to Slag’s face to lead paint scares, there’s a lot of unwrap with Hasbro’s neighbors to the north and south. We’ll break it all down on this episode of Transformers University!

Season 2 of the G1 cartoon continues! We get a Cyberton history lesson with, “Desertion of the Dinobots,” parts 1 & 2, meet Omega Supreme in “Blaster Blues,” head back in time for “A Decepticon Raider in King Arthur’s Court,” and we take a dip in “The Golden Lagoon.”

We head back to Japan to delve into the origins of G1 Manga from TV Magazine and Comic Bom-Bom while looking at the highly detailed art of Studio Ox. Afterwards, we dig into the many different Transformers Opening and Closing theme songs from around the world.
